I can't be creative for work until I'm first creative for myself. Hello, it's been too long. Again. Here's another compilation of recently consumed carbs because
carbs make me happy.
New York City has some of the best collection of carbs, and I'm so glad I'm here to take it all in. New Yorkers really be sustaining themselves on carbs and coffee, and I ain't mad at it. Maybe it's because I don't work in the "weight loss industry" anymore, but I'm grateful that I'm no longer in an environment where carbs are villainized. Carbohydrates are a major source of nutrients that provides the body with fuel. It's my source of energy and comfort. Choose your carb content and quantity wisely. Thank gods for carbs!
Pictured above: the elusive croissant from Aux Merveilleux de Fred, the best I've had in Manhattan - flaky on the outside, so soft and airy on the inside.
